Indigenous Literacy Day
Indigenous Literacy Day is a national celebration of Indigenous culture, stories, language and literacy. https://www.indigenousliteracyfoundation.org.au/
Come and support the Indigenous Literacy Foundation by donating a book for remote Indigenous communities and in exchange you can borrow a "human book" for 30 minutes. Bookings can be made at pearlcovelibrary/humanlibraries.com or by registering on the day.
The Human Living Library is a concept where book lovers of all ages can borrow a book (person) for a set amount of time and through conversation learn about that person's experiences. http://humanlibrary.org/
Human Books will include:
